But the traditional tunes "Three Ships" and "Silent Night" radiate a reverent, gather-‘round-the-fireplace vibe that’ll warm the cockles of even the most hidebound holiday music devotee. Cyndi brings her trademark sass to songs like "Christmas Conga" and the bawdy "Minnie and Santa" among the eight original tunes on the record. In short: no spoiled superstar or commercial cash-in here! Just a fresh, homespun take on a time-honoured tradition, brought to you by a performer whose work in music, theater, and advocacy continues to inspire.

Highly recommended.Leave it to Cyndi Lauper to record a Christmas album that’s upbeat without being sappy! Honestly, the stories that surround the making of this 1998 record are enough to put you in the Christmas spirit. This is an excetional Christmas album: fun, tender, joyous, romantic, silly…it's all here. Original compositions, save Silent Night (here in a tender and simple arrangement and best known when Pampers used it as its holiday commercial theme a few years back), add an intoxicating, yet somehow familiar, twist on Christmas tunes.
